Ingredients

Meat

  • 4 pieces Chicken thighs, bone-in and skin-on (Choose thighs with skin for crispy finish.)
  • 0.5 cup Soy sauce (Use a naturally brewed soy sauce.)
  • 0.25 cup Honey (Adds golden sweetness.)
  • 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced (Fresh garlic delivers fragrant kick.)
  • 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger, grated (Brings spice and brightness.)
  • 1 teaspoon Black pepper (Freshly ground for gentle heat.)
  • 2 tablespoons Sesame seeds (Toasted for nutty crunch.)
  • 2 stalks Green onions, sliced (Adds color and mild onion bite.)

Instructions 

  • Mix soy sauce, honey, garlic, ginger, and black pepper to create the marinade.
  • Marinate the chicken thighs in the mixture for at least 30 minutes.

  • Toast sesame seeds until golden and chop green onions.
  • Garnish chicken with toasted sesame seeds and sliced green onions before serving.

For extra flavor, marinate the chicken overnight.
